  1. We have machine that is running on Siemens S7 PLC and we have mostly Rockwell Automation/Allen Bradley hardware in the facility. I am working on getting a 1783 NATR to talk to the Siemens PLC. I am able to reach the private interface of the PLC from the private port on the NATR. However when I test the public port I am not able to communicate with the PLC. I have done some digging and allowed the below ports.I have tried setting port 102 to TCP and UPD only and no luck. I have done some digging and I am hearing it is possible to get the two devices talking to each other but I am hitting a roadblock.Anyone have any thoughts?
  2. MB_CLIENT Error

      Hi there! I'm trying to communicate a S7-1500 CPU via Modbus TCP with an CJ2 PLC using a CP1W-MODTC61 card. I configurated the MB_Client and the CP1W-MODTC61 was also configured as the attached files show. The thing is that I could not read any data from the PLC (the registers are in the correct address and memory area) and I tried different combinations until I started to get data (with the correct values) for a moment, even with a configuration I already tried. After that the block kept writing a 8200 error in the status word and no data was received. According to the manual that reads:     A different Modbus request is currently being processed via the port.     Another instance of MB_CLIENT with the same connection parameters is processing an existing Modbus request. I can confirm that there is no other device doing a Modbus request in either the 1500 or the CJ2, and I only have one MB_CLIENT block in the entire program. So that's where my question comes, is the CPU detecting another "ghost" request, even if there shouldn't be any? Or am I missing something in the CONNECT structure of the block? Thanks in advance for your support!     Click to choose files

  9. When installing and running SIMATIC Management Console, I am able to see all the computers on the current subnet and connected to the Management Console PC. When trying to add the Management Console pc to Network an error pops up saying: "A SIMATIC Management Console error occurred. Remedy: restart SIMATIC Management Console or restore data, or re-install SIMATIC Management Console." I have tried reinstalling Management Console and Management Agent several times and restarting the pc, but it still gives the same error. The version is V9.1 SP1 Update 3 and running on the latest version of PCS7. I have read the manual many times and checked everything such as user rights and services running, but nothing has fixed it. I have also noticed that SIMATIC Management Agent Configurator does not see Management Console and just has "-----" for where it should name the console. Any help or guidance would be appreciated, thank you!

  11. Dear all, I'd like to get your support on the issue with OPC UA certificate. My OPC UA server has been built with Node.js. The PLC S7-1500 (firmware v2.9) acts as OPC UA client. It's working well without certificate but when I use certificate, there are 2 situations: 1. When connecting using "Online access" (as attachment) in the "OPCUA Communication >> Client interfaces", I can connect with certificate (after I export and copy the PLC's certificate to the trusted folder of the server). --> server is ok. 2. When coding and running with real PLC: can't connect, there is even no PLC's certificate on the rejected folder of the server and there is no any error, the Status of block "OPC UA Connect DB" is still 16#0000_0000. So, what I did with certificate in TIA Portal (V17) are: - Enable the Global security setting for certificate manager - Created (and tested) with both self-signed certificate and CA certificate for PLC - Added server's certificate to trusted list in "Certificate manager" of TIA Portal (also added to the "Certificate of the partner devices" in  Device config) - In "OPCUA Communication >> Client interfaces", chose the Security Mode/Policy and PLC's certificate (already tried with and without this setting) In my point of view, the problem is that the PLC received the certificate but somehow it didn't read correctly or didn't compare with the certificate in the trusted list because if the PLC does this step, it should send its certificate to (the rejected folder of) server. Could anyone help me to solve this issue? Thank you in advance.   [Update] 1.The PLC throw the error code 16#8016_0000 (BadCertificateHostNameInvalid/The HostName used to connect to a Server does not match a HostName in the Certificate - as I searched in google) but it's very quick so I could not see this behavior at the beginning. 2. I have tested with UA Expert, I can connect without any problem/warning. So, the high confidence that problem comes from PLC. ----------  Best regards, Danh Vo

  16. CP1E won't connect or run program

    Hi there! Today a CP1E-E10DR-D suddenly stopped working. RUN led was off and I couldn't connect to it via USB getting this error: "Selected port does not exist. Select proper port number from Change PLC dialog and press OK button", and automatic online function didn't work as well(it's not a cable/driver problem since I successfully connected to a CJ2 CPU using same cable and PC). Since I also tried to connect with the CPU outside the control cabinet with no success, I asume there is something wrong at hardware level.  My question is, have you ever faced something like this? My plan is to try to revive it somehow (maybe trying to locate any defective component in the PCBs or something). So I was just wondering if you have any advice in order to achieve it.  Thanks in advance!
